Does anybody here care about football? In that case what do you think about the incrasing number of foreigners in the leagues in Scandinavia. Who have most of them, Sweden?

It's way too many foreigners in the norwegian leagues, but we have a very, very good law over here for footballplayers. A club can only have max. 3 non-European players on the pitch at the same time It used to be only 2, but the clubs started to nag about it, so they changed it.

And we have the problem about the nationalteam. In Norway we have players like Alexander Tettey and Tarik Elyounoussi, none of them are born here, but the media and the so called experts are talking about how good they are and that they are looking forward to see them in the national team jersey ... The norwegian people can not identify themselve with foreigners on the nationalteam. Doesen't matter wich sport. Why can't them let people identify with they're national teams!? What's wrong with that.
I guess in the future corrupt Sepp Blatter will forbidd national anthems before matches because its to patriotic... Wait and see.

Sometimes i could wish my national team were just like easterneuropean teams. They don't seem to have the same problem.

WELL THAT SUCKS. I ALWAYS SAID that i don't care if my national team never qualifies for some big event. I would rather see 11 BAD players on the pitch that are white, than to have 5 Africans or more that have nothing to do with my country and culture.

Actually there were already talks about this. I think they(UEFA or FIFA don't remember really) proposed to stop with national anthems in friendly and qualifying matches. Only to use them in major competitions. Eventually it will happened because there are more and more foreigners in Europe that don't indentify themselves with lyrics in anthems songs that are most of the time have very patriotic lyrics.

They wont stop playing the national anthem, on the contrary, if they can show a mixed team while playing the tune its like their wet dream. Just look at "our" 17. Mai, how they have hijacked the whole thing, a real coup d`etat. You must remember, in their eyes you can make everyone a norwegian simply by giving them a piece of paper.

Football is just a game. I am care a little about national teams level only, club level became 100% absurd after limits on foreigners were abolished.

I can't really understand what the manager of France are thinking about!? Or maybe he is told to use that many coons, who knows.

Of course, they are thinking about how to win. In French clubs situation is the same - ******s and foreigners are absolute majority. I am not sure that it is possible to recruit 22 French-native players from the whole France's first division.
